Almost a usable product
by David Stuart - May 28th 2003 18:17:25
First, let me preface my comments by saying that this is about version
0.12.
I know my comment might ruffle a few feathers, but this product isn't
quite there yet. After playing with many features the entire day, my
conclusion is that it's OK for doing class diagrams of not-very-big
projects. If you try to mess around with sequence and/or collaboration
diagrams, you risk running into a lot of bugs.
The biggest one for me by far, is the fact that your product can sometimes
become corrupt, and you can lose everything. And I'm never quite sure what
I did to cause this.
Although I really want to love ArgoUML, I can't recommend it as of yet.
For the moment I recommend Poseidon, which is very similar (it's based on
the same technology), but it has obviously had a lot more work put into
the spit and polish end of things, as none of the bugs that were hounding
me in ArgoUML were present in it.

Sweet

I've been trying to make myself trudge through "UML In a
Nutshell" The book isn't bad, it's just too dry for me. I've
learned more about UML and even new stuff about OOA&D going through
the tutorial for ArgoUML than in all my other reading combined.
The tool seems to work very well, the price is right :), and it's
extensible. I'd been planning on spending some serious budget dollars on
Rational tools or the like, but I think I'll just run with ArgoUML :)

generating SQL sould be nice
by runner - Aug 5th 2002 03:56:12
It would be nice (i.e. usefull) if there would be
an option to generate SQL scripts for selected classes or selected
diagram(s). As I am not friend af all-in-one sollutions, I miss such
functionality
daily. Argo is nice tool and that would push it further.

Lack of comments
by Amorphis - Jan 31st 2001 09:48:02
Great tool but i miss the possibility of adding
comments to classes and methods. Some kind of
report tools would also be usefull.

Ability to use comments has improved greatly in the 0.9.x through current
versions.

nice, but not there yet
by Eugene Sotirescu - Jun 29th 2000 13:21:17
The "critic" feature is a great idea and is very useful. Problem is you
have to get argouml to run to use it:
1.forget about installing it from source, it's a mess. use the binaries.
2.the application agrees to run only sometimes; many other times you just
end up staring at a grey window and eventually have to kill it.

look at the source ;-)
by rainer - Feb 14th 2000 04:24:22
Hi,
I tried to download it, too, but it wouldn't work.
I had a look at the source and it uses a script to check the email.
You can ommit the step, if they are to stupid to keep the server/script
running

cheers,
Rainer

Note that we are now prepping for version 0.12 - much has changed since
then. For example, there is no longer a need to register to download.
And that's probably the least significant enhancement.

Alternative download site?
by James Youngman - Jun 2nd 1999 01:02:02
I have consistently been unable to download either source or binary for
this package (I get no response from the web server). Is there an
alternative download site for this Open Source package? TIA for any
help.
